Haven't seen a cheaper one yet. Just like we haven't seen a cheaper Maus version from Hooben.

Highly doubt that his coming double 11 or singles day sale which happens 11/11. Appears to be missing a zero somewhere which makes it quite the expensive toy.

No doubt. It’s on my bucket list by the way.

From China, so probably a scam.
Luckily I paid on my credit card and was able to reclaim my money back, but I also had taken screen shots of the item offered etc. When eventually the item arrived I took it outside onto the patio and took photographs of it and my Challenger 2 for comparative size, lol. Everything was in Chinese and alarmingly the batteries were fitted inside of it, secondhand ? It didn’t work but made good target practice and the cost to return to China was too costly, also they ignored all the emails sent.
Not saying all the Chinese companies are scammers, but buyer beware.
